U.S. Executive Director of Brick by Brick, Marc Sklar, traveled to Uganda in March. As usual, time spent in Uganda was productive and rewarding. Accompanied by Program Coordinator, Max Ssenyonga and Peace Corp volunteer, John Trimmer, Marc met with the staff of numerous NGOs to expand the business of Brick by Brick Construction. In addition, a very engaging meeting was held with the Director of USAID Uganda, David Eckerson, and Ugandan Peace Corp Director Loucine Hayes, where we received their enthusiastic support for our efforts at building a business using environmentally friendly ISSB technology.
Back in the Rakai District, Marc and our Ugandan staff visited several school communities and worked hard to build our organizational capacity
